D. Agf maintained its new york license as a non-transplant anatomic bank. E. Agf maintained its licenses & permits by the maryland board of morticians for operating a crematory; as well as for mortuary transporters f. Agf passed all safety and environmental inspections by various entities, i.e., fire marshall, maryland department of environment (both air & radiation), etc. G. Agf has continued its quality systems; which include regular auditing and reporting of findings. Ii. 2022 statistics: a. Donors 1. There was a total of 1484 donors in 2022 (representing an overall 3% increase from that in 2021) due to the gradual loosening of the pandemic concerns (local, state and federal health department advice & individuals' concerns for potential infection, there were severe restrictions on gathering size, inter-state travel, etc., placed on the number of medical education training sessions. Agf continued covid-19 screening and testing protocols and kept up with breaking news in a quickly evolving pandemic concerns). Throughout the year, to keep pace with the somewhat in clients' needs increasing (over initial pandemic 2020 and 2021 needs), agf continued its coverage area to its home state of maryland; and then regional states, and gradually added pre-registered donors from states out of area. The breakdown of donors by area were: md 38%, regional 33% and out-of-area 18%. Many potential donors who had either contracted covid-19, had symptoms without a negative test, or had direct contact with someone infected with covid-19 were not accepted; regardless of geographic area. 2. Each donor is evaluated based on a myriad of items to make an individualized tissue recovery plan. Considerations are made as to age, sex, surgical hx, pathology, bone & joint quality, etc., as well as any requests from the donor before their death or from their next of kin as to preference for placement to any disease or type of surgery or specific use). 3. These accomplishments were indeed challenging due to being short-staffed after several employees did not return to work as business gradually resumed towards historically normal number in 2022. However, the commitment to the organization's mission continued to be demonstrated by all of those in middle and upper management, along with some new staff, and kept things going and on track with fewer staff. B. Future donors: in 2022 we continued to accept applications to be pre- registered with agf to be future donors. This information is reviewed, cataloged and entered into our database for future retrieval, to assist the families at the time of death. Donor and family services coordinator staff contact our registered future donors every few years to update their medical records and next-of-kin contact information. Of the 1483 donors in 2022: 1. Future donors / willed body donors (657) comprised 44% . 2. Funeral home referrals (125) comprised 8% 3. Local organ/tissue/eye banks (48) comprised 3% 4. Hospice referrals comprised 10%. 5.
